Hugs. I get some of the frustration though I'm only in my early 30s. There's the "what could have been" for me, sometimes...like if I had gotten help as a teenager. But then again, at least in my part of the world, even if I had gone 15 years ago, what I would have needed simply wasn't available. Maybe it's like that where you are too?

Thanks for this!
